I was wondering what everyone thought about possibly getting an authentication event added to the core? This would open up a huge amount of authentication modules such as LDAP and vBulletin. I really think that this is a direction the project needs to go, because it will allow for easier user management.
A program that does something like this is the Kayako Support System. They have what they call "LoginShare" modules, which you can create your own extremely easily.
What does everyone think? Is this already possible and I'm just overlooking something?
Authentication Event
Re: Authentication Event
we have been thinking about this..
Im thinking about seperating users as new module, authentication as new module and so on.
maybe extend the module api with new interfaces for different kind of modules...
I think you could do it with events even now.. (prelogin event gets called, check ldap or whatever, and create the session)
